Hey all i just joined 8thcivic and have a question for all the civic veterans here. im going to get a new car as an 18th birthday/high school graduation/going to college present sometime next year. ive narrowed it down to the 09 mazda3 and the 09 civic ex coupe which will be out by then. i would say im almost sold on the civic except for one thing... i dont know if ill like the two tier dash thing. its a small worry but its enough to hold me back a little. im wondering if you guys could give me some insight on what the digital speedometer is like? is it cool? (it looks cool in pictures) does it look good at night? can you get a glare on it during the day sometimes? i know i could just test drive it and check it out for myself but i wont be buying the car until next year and thats when ill check it out too but i just would like to know about it now. as far as the mazda3, the exterior is nice though i like the civic better, and the interior i think is sick and better than the civic interior. appreciate any help guys.
